Featured Game Week 2 - NY Giants At
Indianapolis Colts
The battle of the Mannings, this is a bigger game for the
Colts given their opening day loss to the Texans. They don't
want to start 0-2 especially after the Texans pulled out the
overtime win at the Redskins.
Note our new formatting doesn't show any color until after the
first score. |

Real nice PossessionPoints drive by the Colts to open the game.
A 6 minute + touchdown drive worth 47 PossessionPoints. Before
the game we said on our "BlogTalkRadio"
show that we wouldn't be surprised by a Green-Green shootout,
this one is starting that way. |

Another fine PossessionPoints drive by the Colts has them in the
"yellow" already, they are only 18 away from Green. If however,
this is to become a "Green-Green" shootout, Eli and the Giants
need to get moving. |

Well, the Colts just turned green. That puts them in the 75%
chance of winning. Many of the 25% come when there is a
"Green-Green" shootout. The Giants need to change their
offensive and defensive strategies if they want to make this a
game. Needless to say what they have been doing so far isn't
working. |

Well, the feature game is becoming a feature blowout. The Giants
appear overmatched on both sides of the ball. |

Well the Giants get on the board. Credit Eli with courage
standing in and making a big time throw. Most likely too little
too late, but we will see. The Giants defense has to now show
that it figured something out at halftime. |

Well, the Colts have extinguished any hope the Giants had with a
4 minute plus touchdown drive. We said when the Colts turned
Green in the first half that it was a 75% chance they would win. |

Giants get a gift TD, since they only took 6 seconds it was
virtually worthless in PossessionPoints also. |

If you hung in there until the end, we are guessing you are not
a Giants fan. There wasn't much to cheer for if you were a
Giants fan. This one was over in the first half. |
